Absolutely the best content maker (for me) out there. I've bought a few of your videos over the years. I'd buy more if I wasn't completely and utterly broke after nearly 4 months of not being able to work.

I am glad you like my content. However some things in life are more important than l&c. Hope you can soon work again. In my regular job everyting is OK despite Corona. I only notice it in slightly lower sales rates of my clips. Anyway ... all good wishes for you! :thumbup1:

Glad you are still selling though. Hopefully the year will get better.

Hey rflcblue, I was wondering what kind of gear you used to do the POV shots in your videos, is it some kind of selfie stick or something the like? How do you tie it?

The thing is I tried to do something like that with my gf by just holding a phone over her shoulder (of course not my 7D :)). But she's pretty strong and can carry me for quite a while on her back, like 250m, and I need both my arms solidly put around her shoulders to be able to stay up there for that long.

Really enjoyed cute Jennifer btw, cool girl and she tried hard to put her nice feet back into these heels hehe!

I used to do it with a camcorder, but generally need the right hand to hold it. Never with a smartphone, because you cannot turn the monitor and you cannot see, what you are shooting. When you use a camcorder or a camera, where you can turn the monitor, you focus the lense down and turn the monitor to your head. Very helpful is a wide angle lense in order to see more of the girls body.

I also used a (long) selfie stick (for shoulderride) and an action cam. I have one with a seperate small monitor on a bracelet and put it on the left arm (like a watch) while holding the stick/cam with the right hand. But you have to trust in the girl and in your own balance, because you use boths arms to control the shooting. It?s a bit strenuous, but why should you be comfortable while the girl has to work so hard, haha. Really, better you do not try this (the shoulderride), you could injure yourself, when you fall down.

OK, good luck with your piggyback shooting! ;)

Funny you had that impression cause these are actually my favorite, give you the impression you're actually up there looking down at that girl nice enough to give you a ride. No one ever mentions her but one of my favorite was Hani and her red pumps. The audio was quite good on this one too, her cute gasping really stood out!

Thanks for the info! And yes I'll follow your advice and keep the shoulder rides to a minimum. My gf is actually able to do it but not for very long, she says it puts a lot of pressure on her spine.
